I really think the character Balloon Fighter should be considered. It has major potential for a very interesting moveset and could add some variety in play styles. The number of the character's jumps, for instance, could be determined by his number of balloons. His B standard move could be used similar to Olimar's pikmin pluck in which BF pumps up individual balloons - maybe 4 pumps for one balloon with a max of 3. Balloons could be incorporated into different attacks such as maybe an USmash that deliberately pops a balloon as an attack. I just think Balloon Fighter would be a wonderful change of pace - a real original character.
Here's my ideal moveset in a nutshell:
B: balloon pump (already described)
B^: balloon pop (sacrifices one balloon and launches balloon fighter skyward)
or Deflation (Balloon fighter lets his balloon deflate and rides the air current to reach the stage movement could be somewhat erratic)
B>: Bumper toss (Balloon fighter throws a spinning bumper that plants mid air and lasts for a couple of seconds, not much damage but great knock back)
Bv: (this one's a little if'y) Electrocuted (based on the game in which the clouds would shoot bolts at you, The balloon fighter is jolted and takes damage but anyone touching him takes double the damage he does.)
Final Smash: Big Fish (The fish from the ice climbers stage sweeps suddenly across the stage anyone touching it's body takes good damage and anyone that gets caught in it's mouth is swept offstage)
P.S. I also think Skull Kid should be considered, mainly because "moon landing" would be a badass final smash.
